Notes

This endpoint consumes 1 credit per 1-15 profiles (rounded up). The cost scales with the number of profiles requested. Failed requests (errors) do not count against your quota.
Posts are returned in reverse chronological order (newest first), aggregated from all specified profiles. The count parameter specifies posts PER PROFILE, so 3 profiles with count=15 returns up to 45 posts total.
This endpoint scrapes each profile individually using reliable methods, ensuring consistent and deterministic results.
You can mix profile URLs and URNs in the same request. Both formats are supported.
